Pegasus Bay

Sauvignon Blanc & Semillon

2015

Waipara Valley, New Zealand

This wine was recommended to us as an ‘interesting’ bottle to be served icy cold and so we tried it for an early lock-down evening apéro with some fresh ciabatta bread and olive oil and our ‘socially distant’ neighbours over the wall (who were on their own wine).

The Pegasus bottle is a concentrated wine, reminiscent of one of the new chalk-based English wines - almost an aromatic of honey and lime but with a natural fizz underlying the mineral base, An acquired taste, lovely to sip chilled on a warm evening but not one that everyone would enjoy.

Cost: Over SGD$50

Buy Again?: Under advice from a Dutch friend maybe a second visit.
